Question Accessport setup

I did a search and didnt find anything that answered my question. So here goes.

I have a 04 WRX. So far I have put a Helix uppipe/downpipe, GReddy EVO exhaust, and Samco IC hoses. I have my accessport on order. My question is anyone else running the same setup as what I have? I try doing some search on Cobb's forum but didnt come up with much. I am just trying to get a feel for what the power might be and the overall feel of the car after the reflash.

According to Cobb I should be at about 280HP with a stage 2. I am not sure if that will be what my car after the reflash. After this reflash I am done modding my car's engine. Then it be time to work on the Suspension stuff. :banana:

My setup is similar. You will be at 280 after the reflash.

<<After this reflash I am done modding my car's engine.>>

That's what I said. I now have a VF34 sitting in my garage.

How is your car running? Run into any problems?

None. Car has run great from day one. You will notice the car runs smoother once you have the reflash. Keep in mind that it will take a week or so before your ECU has learned and is giving full boost. Don't be alarmed or disappointed.

Mods like uppipe and IC hoses have negligible effects, so you will be fine with a Stage II map.

I have a similar setup to yours. The power increase is not too much of a kick in the pants, imo. You'll definitely notice the difference though. Boost comes up quicker, which is what I like. Even in 5th, if you're at highway cruising speed and you floor it, boost will rip up to 15 psi.
